'Jerusalem prays whilst Tel Aviv plays' but Haifa works!
Haifa is where the true working dynamism of Israel happens. It was here that was the first modern settlement under the Templers and here that provided the fledgling state with grain and Western Europe with Oil. Haifa is also an example to the entire world about co-existence, it is home to five religions; Jews, Druze, Christians, Baha'i and Muslims. |
